The fourth major adjustment problem in marriage is to the in-laws. With marriage, every adult acquires a whole new set of relatives – the in-laws.

Both husbands and wives must ...
The second major adjustment problem in marriage is sexual adjustment. This is unquestionably one of the most difficult adjustments to marriage, and it is the one most likely to lead to marital discord and unhappiness if it is not satisfactorily achieved.
